Locking compound recommendations
#2
Remove the screw from the handle bar and if it is not stripped, you can use a wire brush to clean it up. Use a drop or two of LocTite Blue on the threads and then tighten it back up. Make sure the LocTite is evenly spread around the screw so that it holds correctly. Don't over tighten the screw as the way that you break the LocTite seal is to tighten the screw a little more. Over tightening the screw may cause the head to snap off when you attempt to remove it for whatever reason.
